    The Prieuré Saint-Marcoul de Corbeny is a former Benedictine monastery located in Corbeny, in the Aisne department. It was founded at the beginning of the 10th century and played an important role in the religious and political history of the region.
    The monastery was founded by Charles III the Simple, who granted asylum to monks from Nanteuil in Normandy during the Norman invasions. These monks brought with them the relics of Saint Marcoul, which were known for their healing powers. The relics attracted pilgrims, including kings of France who came to Corbeny after their coronation in Reims to receive the healing power of the relics.
    The monastery was closed in 1790 during the French Revolution. Despite its closure, the Prieuré Saint-Marcoul remains an important historical and cultural monument in the region.

      Today there is a beautiful resting place at the foot of the vineyards.
